love thursday: revelation

Thanks so much for your lovely words of encouragement on yesterday's post. My publisher emailed me every time an order came in: "From Maine now! From California!" You made several people at Bright Sky very happy.

So, thanks again, everyone. Your kind support is making me look good to my publisher, which is just lovely. I'm very grateful.

In other news: I've been watching these flowers daily -- they're my favourite blossoms in our front garden. I love how they sort of peek out of the bushes, these really unassuming buds that blend into the foliage around them, and then slowly, slowly, they reveal themselves for what they really are.

It sort of reminds me of the best kinds of relationships: when you meet someone, and you realize that they're your kinda people, so you start to reveal yourself, becoming who you totally truly are because you feel safe and supported in their presence.
